A.回答问题。
请阅读下面这篇文章,根据所提供的信息,回答5个问题。要求所写答案语法正确,语义完整。
Nick Lee, a magician (魔术师), tries to bring joy to seriously ill children and their families in the hospital. Lee works with the charity (慈善机构) Spread A Smile. It sends a lot of artists, including magicians, into hospitals. The charity want to create memories for families at the hardest times.
Before he worked with the charity, two members of Lee’s family had been in Great Ormond Street Hospital and had been visited there by Spread A Smile magicians. He says seeing their eyes light up at the magicians was his favourite thing.
Often people who become magicians grow up in families that do magic, but in Lee’s families he is the first magician. He got his first magic set when he was three, and at the age of 16 he started doing shows. Lee has difficulty in reading, and this influences the way a person learns. He says maths and English were always difficult, but he thought, “This magic seems to be going well.”
Lee says he learns a lot from the children in hospital when he’s doing magic. “Seeing the children’s courage has given me power,” he says, “I might be having a bad day, but this person is probably having a much worse day than I am, and they’ re still smiling.
